  • Description:
    You play an important role in protecting yourself, your family, and friends from flu. Flu spreads easily from

    person to person. It spreads mainly through droplets that come from a sick person’s nose and mouth when they

    cough, sneeze, or talk. These droplets can travel up to 6 feet and land in the noses and mouths of people nearby or be inhaled into the lungs. It also can spread when you touch surfaces or objects that have flu germs on them and then touch your nose or mouth. Plan to stay home if you’re sick. By practicing healthy habits, you will be doing your part to help prevent the spread of flu.
